The purpose of this reddit is to help each other understand the course materials, not to share solutions to assignments. Please follow the Stanford Honor Code, and don't post any links to pirated versions of the textbook.

You might want to check out Steve Blank's website, steveblank.com. I found it a year ago as a link from reddit, specifically a link to his Secret History of Silicone Valley. Very interesting. This led me to read more articles on his site, to learn a little about him, and to eventually buy his book, The Four Steps to Epiphany. I thought it was a little overpriced at $40, but after reading the first few chapters, I realized that this was the sort of information, which if diligently followed, is the most intelligent, realistic, real-world instruction sheet on how to start one's own technology business. Frankly, now that I've read it, I would gladly pay $500 for a copy of it. Seriously.

Was excited to see Stanford doing this again, and doubly excited to see Steve Blank teaching his course online. Sorry if I'm gushing. :)
